I liked the cat chasing the mutt. : )
And pawing at the festering boot cast.
MORAL: Preach to inanimate objects and crotchety old men will convert. Gonna have to try that around here...
Moving away from the adorable cat who stole the whole show, I thought this Chick tract was a little heavier on scripture quotes than most. Our intrepid young preacher obviously had a good memory for bible quotes.
He was only affectionately using it as a scratching post. I feel obliged to defend the playfulness of the endearing star of this tract. I haven't seen any articles about the Chick shop in some years. I know reading about their circulation and sales was interesting in where and what numbers went around the world. Chick's reach is somewhat longer than most people know.
Once again bro you unveil my strategy. :)
That Sunday school teacher must be something else! :) Romans Road all the way!
Back when I was studying for the ministry I use to go to the park in Portland at lunch time and preach to the pigeons, squirrels and ducks. I had many a luncher listen, but never one complain.
I thought the same when I first looked at those consecutive Romans quotes he started with but I think the full Romans Road is considered to have other passages, all exclusively from Romans. The verses from other books are no doubt classic and very familiar for Chick's tracts or lots of sermons but this was not a pure Romans Road example even if the tract started with Romans. OTOH, it's not like Chick's target audience is Bible literate. He's fishing for real converts.
I liked the part where Chick went to confession. You might be overreading that "confess". I didn't see any panels here with a priest.
Not even of the "Order of Melchizedek"? : )
Melchizedek is a little obscure to get mentioned in a Chick tract.
He didn't need to confess converting to Catholic since it's not a sin. He’s talking to dolls. IDOLATRY!
Perhaps, but hey, aren't all Christians supposed to be "priests by the order of Melchizedek" through Christ, or something?
Mr.Chick can stick his kindergartin cartoons up his ass. I went to Sunday school briefly in my youth. It was the most repulsive and morbid system of guilt inducing mmythological propganda imaginable. I was beat over the head constantly how Jesus died for my sins and that I should feel guilty about it. I wouldn't even be born yet for close to 2,000 thousand years. Yet I was somehow guilty and owed him rependence for the rest of me life or would go to hell according to the crap I was being fed. According to my smiling indoctrinators, there was no escape for me. About three doses of that, and I was through with it. It was an attempt to cripple me and leave me beating myself senseless with a neurotic whip. I got the hell out.
I am truly sorry you had a cultic religious upbringing.
Hebrews 7 New King James Version (NKJV) 7 For this Melchizedek, king of Salem, priest of the Most High God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him, 2 to whom also Abraham gave a tenth part of all, first being translated “king of righteousness,” and then also king of Salem, meaning “king of peace,” 3 without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but made like the Son of God, remains a priest continually. 4 Now consider how great this man was, to whom even the patriarch Abraham gave a tenth of the spoils. 5 And indeed those who are of the sons of Levi, who receive the priesthood, have a commandment to receive tithes from the people according to the law, that is, from their brethren, though they have come from the loins of Abraham; 6 but he whose genealogy is not derived from them received tithes from Abraham and blessed him who had the promises. 7 Now beyond all contradiction the lesser is blessed by the better. 8 Here mortal men receive tithes, but there he receives them, of whom it is witnessed that he lives. 9 Even Levi, who receives tithes, paid tithes through Abraham, so to speak, 10 for he was still in the loins of his father when Melchizedek met him. 11 Therefore, if perfection were through the Levitical priesthood (for under it the people received the law), what further need was there that another priest should rise according to the order of Melchizedek, and not be called according to the order of Aaron? 12 For the priesthood being changed, of necessity there is also a change of the law. 13 For He of whom these things are spoken belongs to another tribe, from which no man has officiated at the altar. 14 For it is evident that our Lord arose from Judah, of which tribe Moses spoke nothing concerning priesthood. 15 And it is yet far more evident if, in the likeness of Melchizedek, there arises another priest 16 who has come, not according to the law of a fleshly commandment, but according to the power of an endless life. 17 For He testifies: “You are a priest forever According to the order of Melchizedek.” 18 For on the one hand there is an annulling of the former commandment because of its weakness and unprofitableness, 19 for the law made nothing perfect; on the other hand, there is the bringing in of a better hope, through which we draw near to God. 20 And inasmuch as He was not made priest without an oath 21 (for they have become priests without an oath, but He with an oath by Him who said to Him: “The Lord has sworn And will not relent, ‘You are a priest forever According to the order of Melchizedek’”), 22 by so much more Jesus has become a surety of a better covenant. 23 Also there were many priests, because they were prevented by death from continuing. 24 But He, because He continues forever, has an unchangeable priesthood. 25 Therefore He is also able to save to the uttermost those who come to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them. 26 For such a High Priest was fitting for us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and has become higher than the heavens; 27 who does not need daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifices, first for His own sins and then for the people’s, for this He did once for all when He offered up Himself. 28 For the law appoints as high priests men who have weakness, but the word of the oath, which came after the law, appoints the Son who has been perfected forever.
Why does anyone think this sort of thing is beneficial to Christianity? Christ did not send us to thrust a pamplet into someone's hand. We are called by our example to demonstrate the love of God
Why can't we do both?
You're getting at what I was getting at. As long as the boy is ministering the word of Jesus, is he not a priest through Jesus' priesthood? How could Jack Chick possibly disagree with me (until he found out I was a Catholic anyway)?
The boy in the pamplet is a fictional character, that is what I was getting at, you are confused if you think a fictional character can be a priest
Sourpuss.
I like the bird on the bench's reaction to the kid's practice-preaching (which mirrors gramps.)
I thought the moral was, ""practice-makes-perfect." The kid seemed to be rehearsing a sermon. Those "creatures" were his "audience."
Would they ever return for your following sermons? Or did you bribe your audience with bread scraps ;-)
"Melchizedek." WHO?? :-)
Now I'm laughing...
He'll have to do it in Heaven now. Mr. Chick has gone to his Eternal Home. I went to Sunday school briefly in my youth. It was the most repulsive and morbid system of guilt inducing mmythological propganda imaginable. I was beat over the head constantly how Jesus died for my sins and that I should feel guilty about it. I wouldn't even be born yet for close to 2,000 thousand years. Yet I was somehow guilty... Interesting perspective. I felt pretty much the same way; I wondered why *I* was being indicted for a "sin" *I* hadn't committed... ....Until something clicked, the light-bulb went off, and I fully understood the context. I believe I was about age 21. As to "mythical," the word is defined either as: 1) "Allegorical" The Bible has been proven to cite actual and factual historical people, places, events, AND date accurately -- WITH corroborative evidence and eyewitnesses. IF one dismisses the Bible as a source of "history," you may as well dismiss most or ALL sources of "history" for the last 2000 or more years. Oddly, one could make the case that there is MORE corroborative, true Biblical evidence of events presented and preserved...than by our contemporary Media (which indeed report lies and "myth.")
That's a doll. All of those dolls look psychotic. Or maybe the artist wasn't good at drawing toys. What boy (or girl) would have toys like that? Well, unless their parents hated them.
Vic is just trying to lure us in.
OR, "stuffed animal." (Are dolls or stuffed animals considered "toys"?) All of those dolls look psychotic. Or maybe the artist wasn't good at drawing toys. Heh -- true. I guess they represent "Gramps"and those hostile to The Word.
Hilarious...
Why can't we do both? Amen. I would submit that ANY way The Word of God and Gospel message can somehow find its way to someone is a beneficial thing. After all, wouldn't you try and save someone who is not aware that they are about to walk off the edge of a cliff?
SATANIC ones! (Cue the Church Lady.)
"Come into my parlor," said the spider to the fly...
Gesundheit!

2) "False or fictitious" an "over-exaggeration"
3) "Traditional historical story which explaining a natural or social phenomenon."

You should have stayed with it instead of letting the superstition obsessed bastards wear you down.
